pango_layout_get_clip_region

Description:

public Region pango_layout_get_clip_region (Layout layout, int x_origin, int y_origin, int[] index_ranges)

Obtains a clip region which contains the areas where the given ranges of text would be drawn.

x_origin and y_origin are the top left point to center the layout. index_ranges should contain ranges of bytes in the layout’s text.

Note that the regions returned correspond to logical extents of the text ranges, not ink extents. So the drawn layout may in fact touch areas out of the clip region. The clip region is mainly useful for highlightling parts of text, such as when text is selected.

Parameters:

layout	a Layout
x_origin	X pixel where you intend to draw the layout with this clip
y_origin	Y pixel where you intend to draw the layout with this clip
index_ranges	array of byte indexes into the layout, where even members of array are start indexes and odd elements are end indexes
n_ranges	number of ranges in `index_ranges`, i.e. half the size of `index_ranges`

Returns:

a clip region containing the given ranges
